Aerotech News and Review – Digital and Print Journal of Aerospace, Defense Industry and Veteran News, serving the Antelope Valley (“Aerospace Valley”) and Edwards AFB, CA. An AerotechNews.com Publication. – May 1, 2020
Hello, fans and friends, and thanks for checking out the May 1 edition of Aerotech News and Review! We have a “tease” for you on our front page this week, something we REALLY hope we’ll get a taste of here in Aerospace Valley – Operation America Strong, featuring community flyovers by our military aerial demonstration teams, the USAF Thunderbirds and the US Navy Blue Angels. The teams are flying, sometimes together, over select communities nationwide for the next couple of weeks. Schedule information for these flights is being released in a controlled manner, in order to encourage us earthbound spectators to adhere to social distancing protocols in place during the current public health emergency. We are closely monitoring all information sources and will quickly post schedule updates and photos for you on our website, www.aerotechnews.com, and on our various social media channels. The Thunderbirds and Blue Angels have visited our communities many times and they KNOW how much we love and appreciate them here, so we’re optimistic that they’ll pass within waving distance! We just have to behave and not ALL go rushing out to BJ’s Corner to watch – OK? DEAL!
